His improvement has come a long way. Some guys just know how to play BB...some guys have to think it through. It’s natural for him. I’m starting to think he could be a real go to guy. I was very glad to see his aggression didn’t fall off after the layoff. If he can figure out how to stay on the court for 30 minutes he will come up with some 20 pt games.

As I've said in the past, my issue isn't so much with them, as the over-recruitment of guards (and lack of bigs). There are only so many minutes to go around and we recruited more guys than we need at the 1-3. Somebodies going to be on the bench and that somebody is probably going to be one of the low rated recruits (Mikey or Mason). |

It's been a theme since Brannen started coaching here. There have been a number of games now where Diarra outplays Vogt in the first half when Vogt gets in foul trouble, then Diarra sits on the bench the rest of the game. Brannen simply does not give Diarra the opportunities or slack that he gave Rap or gives Vogt. Vogt had a relatively good game for him, but he still wasn't that good and was a net negative if you look at +/- (though that's a debated stat to use). Diarra helped us build a lead in the first half (came in with at about 9 minute mark with us 1, left at half with us up 6). Diarra seems energetic and involved on the bench. But I have to wonder if Diarra will get frustrated at some point. |

Now that Davenport can shoot we can play him at the 3...but that was a bit unexpected. |

I often wonder just as I did with Cronin why it seems some guys are in the doghouse. That may not even be the right word. But something is holding them back. Harvey could be a 30 minute guy at this point every night but he hasn’t played more than about 25 in any game. There is a reason for that whether we know it or not. |
